"His Royal Highness the Holy Son and the three crowns are here in person, and the humble house is really full of brilliance."

The Netherworld Grand Duke, who had been waiting for a long time, saw a few people coming, and hurriedly got up to greet them.

Zhu Meilin, this is the name of the Grand Duke of the Netherworld.

At the same time, he is also a Contra-level soul master.

The Zhu family did not have a Title Douluo-level powerhouse, he was already one of the oldest people in the entire family.

From the outside, it was hard for Summer Spirit to imagine that this was the patriarch who ruled over the entire Nether Family.

A dexterous and thin figure, a crane-haired and childish face, and a kind smile.

On the contrary, it gives people the feeling of neighbors.

The three Super Douluo did not dominate, they were all one step behind Xia Ling and Zhu Zhuqing.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, I've heard the reputation of the Netherworld Grand Duke for a long time, and I've admired it for a long time."

Xia Ling let go and took Zhu Zhuqing's hand and returned the salute.

The three Douluo nodded slightly, even if they had seen it.

With the cultivation of several of them, it is reasonable to do nothing at all.

Now that he can nod at the Grand Duke of the Netherworld, it is already extremely face-saving.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please inside. Lan Xing, why don't you quickly show you tea? ”

The Nether Grand Duke hurriedly beckoned.

There is no one who is a hereditary duke or a Contra powerhouse.

The posture is very low.

"The Grand Duke is too polite, there is no need to be polite."

After the two sides sat down, Xia Ling went straight to the point.

"I took the liberty to come this time for my marriage with Zhuqing."

As he was talking, Xia Ling took Zhu Zhuqing's hand.

Between the ten fingers, the two dragon and phoenix rings reflect each other.

bloomed with an indescribable aura.

"Zhuqing and I have long been in love with each other and pay each other for life. I wonder if I can ask the Grand Duke to come forward and dissolve the marriage contract between Zhuqing and the Dai family? ”

"Absolutely."

Zhu Meilin agreed very simply, and nodded with a smile.

He was an old man and sent a sycophant at the right time.

"The old man has also heard of His Royal Highness's show of love in the Martial Soul Arena before, and I believe you are also sincere. It is the honor of our Zhu family that Zhu Qing can marry His Royal Highness the Holy Son. ”

"It's just that this ......"

Speaking of this, Zhu Meilin paused, slightly hesitating.

Then the conversation changed.

"This marriage contract, the old man is happy to fulfill His Highness here. But I'm afraid it's difficult on the Dai family's side. I heard that the kid named Dai Mubai of the Dai family came first, and the emperor intended to choose him as the prince of Xingluo. ”

"If the eldest prince Davis still has the advantage, this matter will be much easier to handle."

Zhu Meilin sighed for a long time.

The image of an elder who cares about his juniors and works hard is vividly interpreted.

"Then, according to the Grand Duke, what should we do at this time?"

Xia Ling didn't puncture his thoughts, and asked on the way.

Zhu Meilin stroked his beard and said with a little distress: "At this time, I am afraid that His Royal Highness needs to go to negotiate with the emperor in person, but the old man can't be the master." ”

Okay, Grand Duke of the Netherworld, no wonder it was a compliment when I came up before.

Waiting for me here?

Chun Chun lied to me like a stupid boy.

It's all a thousand-year-old fox, what are you talking to me about?

If Xia Ling was really just a fourteen-year-old boy, I was afraid that he would be deceived by his appearance.

provoke the contradiction between the Wuhun Hall and the Dai family, and your Zhu family will pick up ready-made cheap.

Want to prostitute the support of the Wuhun Hall for nothing, but don't want to pay much substantive things?

How can there be such a good thing?

"Just with the two jujubes of the White Tiger family now, can they decide Zhuqing's marriage contract with full authority? Grand Duke, you are not authentic. ”

Xia Ling sneered and replied to him without being salty.

Zhu Meilin was very calm, and his kind face did not change.

Still replied with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Holy Son said that he was joking, our Dai and Zhu families have always been based on the Dai family, why don't you talk about it?" An emaciated camel is bigger than a horse! They are the Xingluo royal family, where is our Zhu family the opponent of their Dai family. ”

Immediately afterwards, the two had a heated discussion on this matter again.

After a lot of rhetoric, no one would let go.

The central argument of this matter is no longer simply a matter of marriage.

Rather, it involves the political game and team issues of the two top forces.

Old fox!

Little fox!

After a long time, the two secretly cursed each other in their hearts at the same time.

The Netherworld Grand Duke wanted to break away from the control of the Dai family, but he refused to be the first bird, and he didn't want to break with the Dai family now.

Xia Lingyou wanted to increase the difficulty of the game for the Star Luo Empire, or Dai Mubai, but he didn't want to tear his face with the Star Luo Empire right now.

Until a certain degree of industrialization is completed, Xia Ling does not want to face the war of the two empires at the same time so quickly.

Once the war starts, the birth of many things will be delayed.

Winning this war, it's easy.

But it is very difficult to quickly unify and restore people's livelihood after winning.

If it weren't for this, more than 20 Titled Douluo of the Wuhun Hall would have carried out a beheading operation together, and directly killed all the royal family members and officials of the two empires.

Once the top leaders of the two empires collapse, the mess left behind will be enough for the Martial Spirit Hall to drink a pot.

The high-end combat power of the Wuhun Hall is indeed unmatched, but the number of middle and lower-level strength is really less.

It's like the Mongol Empire.

There are not enough people, and the territory is too large.

No one cares about it after the turf is down.

So what to do?

Slaughter the city.

If you kill them all, you don't need to care.

But the Wuhun Hall can't do this, they still want to industrialize the whole continent.

Population is the most important resource.

Therefore, if the Wuhun Hall wants to control such a large territory of the two empires, it can only try it slowly.

In the conference hall, the debate between the two became more and more intense.

Zhu Zhuqing was already stunned.

Sword Douluo simply began to meditate and cultivate.

Ju Douluo was even more bored enough to lean on Ghost Douluo and fight Hache.

It's okay to let them fight, but they really don't understand this kind of negotiation.

"Smack!"

A loud slap on the table instantly woke up the four people who were staring in a daze.

"Netherworld, there is a limit to my patience, you give me enough time, don't talk to me about these things that I don't have!"

Xia Ling was originally a person who was very afraid of trouble.

He was able to tolerate the Netherworld Grand Duke for so long, and it was already for Zhu Zhuqing's sake.

However, the old man of the Netherworld Grand Duke is old and refined, and he does not enter the oil and salt.

In that case, let's just flip the table.

"I'll give you two options. First, standing on the side of the Martial Spirit Palace, I can make your Zhu family the leader of this land in the future. Second, your Zhu family will continue to stay like this, but I can't guarantee the result. ”

"At most, it will be on Zhuqing's face at that time, and I won't let you die too ugly."

Xia Ling didn't say that he could make the Zhu family emperor, only the leader.

The bureaucratic class is all landlords and old wealth who are about to be overthrown, how can he cut off his horse's legs?

Zhu Meilin's heart froze, and he feigned anger and said, "What does His Highness the Holy Son mean by this? Aren't you persecuting the old man? ”

Don't look at him on the surface full of momentum, but in his heart he muttered.

He has been in the court for so many years, and he has stood tall after two generations of emperors, and he has never seen such a business discussion.

Does this person know how to play?

How to come up and flip the table!

Xia Ling sneered.

"yes, I'm just forcing you, how are you going? Could it be that your Zhu family still wants to do it with me? ”

"I'm polite to you because you are the elder of Zhuqing, the Grand Duke of the Netherworld, don't take yourself too seriously."

"If you want to take advantage of the martial spirit hall to ascend to the throne, you have to pay the corresponding price, don't think that you can be a white wolf with empty gloves from me, and those who dare to play with me like this have to be two feet tall now."

"You can be the patriarch, and if you can't, you can quickly change people."

As soon as the words fell, the coercion of the three Ninety-Seven Super Douluo had instantly enveloped the area near the council hall.

Many of the elders who were waiting for the results in the rooms on both sides were struck by this sudden coercion.

Some of the stewards with low cultivation were even pressed to the ground.

Inside the council chamber, the Netherworld Justice is at the very center of this maelstrom.

The momentum of the three Super Douluo was like three peerless divine weapons, which fiercely crushed him to death on his seat.

The breath of death seemed to come quietly at this moment.

It wasn't until this time that Zhu Meilin realized that the many Nether White Tiger combinations he was proud of didn't seem to be able to wrestle with the Martial Spirit Palace.

This is just the three Title Douluo, the three elders of the Martial Spirit Palace.

The momentum on their bodies alone was already overwhelming themselves.

There are even more terrifying popes in the Wuhun Palace.

Even the last pope, the last pope!

and Bone Douluo, who is known as the world's first defense, and Ning Fengzhi, who is the world's first auxiliary!

Even if the Netherworld White Tiger composed of two Contra Douluo can compete with Title Douluo, what if it?

The problem is that they simply don't have a chance to make a move.

Seeing that it was about the same time, Summer Spirit waved his hand.

The three Super Douluo brushed away the coercion on their bodies, and Zhu Meilin in the council hall regained his ability to act.

At this time, as if he had been fished out of the water, he sat on the wide Taishi chair and gasped for breath.

Zhu Meilin's mind echoed with three big words.

Sloppy.

At this time, his heart was filled with full bitterness.

I thought that I already had the capital to negotiate the conditions with the Wuhun Palace.

As a result, he found that even if he raised the strength of the whole clan, he probably wouldn't be able to defeat the three people in front of him.

"Do you figure it out now?"

Summer Spirit looked at the Netherworld Grand Duke again.

"I'll tell you what you think."

Zhu Meilin struggled to sit up from the stool and slowed down for a full ten seconds.

People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.

Eventually, he gritted his teeth and spoke.

"Your Highness the Holy Son, my Netherworld Clan is willing to stand on the side of the Martial Spirit Palace."

"Tsk, you would have said that you would have said it earlier, you would have to add so much drama to yourself."

Zhu Meilin smiled wryly.

"Isn't this trying to bring more benefits to the younger generations of the family?"

"Don't talk to me, since you agreed, let's get down to business. About the cooperation between the Netherworld Family and the Soul Palace......"

Now that the Netherworld family has nominally become their own people, Xia Ling wants to use their share of power.

After a long, long time, the two foxes, one big and one small, finally agreed on a mutually acceptable terms of cooperation.

Although the Netherworld Clan accepted the injection of the Martial Spirit Palace, they couldn't go too far before they completely broke with the White Tiger Family.

can only secretly cooperate with the Wuhun Hall behind the scenes.

For example, he added several small colleges under his control to the compulsory education reform of the Wuhun Palace.

For example, send some of his own children to go to school at the Martial Spirit Academy and so on.

Compared with the undefensive attitude towards the Titans, Lou Gao and others, Xia Ling did not fully believe in Zhu Meilin, the old fox.

Although he has the advantage of strength and the insight of the era of the information explosion, he also understands that he is not that kind of material when it comes to pure political struggle and strategic struggle.

I'm a tour guide, and you let me directly transform into a politician?

I think you're just embarrassed for me.

So, he deliberately left a back hand in Zhu Meilin's spiritual sea.

A spiritual seed with a similar effect to the one in Tang Hao's mind.

Taking advantage of the previous three Super Douluo Wei pressing, he used his divine sense to plant it in the opponent's brain.

With this spiritual seed, coupled with strong spiritual power, Zhu Meilin's thoughts will no longer be defensive against him.

When facing him, Xia Ling can see his thoughts at a glance as if he has his heart.

Even if Zhu Meilin really had any way to deceive the perception of the Spirit Sea, it didn't matter.

This thing is equivalent to a time bomb composed of mental power.

As long as his spiritual power was not a great realm higher than Xia Ling's, he would never be able to solve this hidden danger.

The cultivation realm has already played with the spiritual power, and it is impossible for the Douluo Continent to catch up with it by rockets.

The discussion was successfully concluded, and it was time for dinner.

The Netherworld Grand Duke very warmly invited Xia Ling and the three Titled Douluo to participate in the noon banquet.

Without involving interests and anything else, Xia Ling is still very talkative.

After soliciting Zhu Zhuqing's consent, several people decided to give the Netherworld Grand Duke this face.

During the banquet, the Grand Duke of the Netherworld frequently hinted at when Xia Ling and Zhu Zhuqing would get married.

On the Douluo Continent, especially the soul masters, they generally mature earlier.

Thereupon.

Everyone generally marries and has children at a relatively early age.

Oscar's dad was only fourteen years old when he was born, understand?

Xia Ling didn't hang him, and gave a letter.

Now let's settle down, at least five years after the official marriage, and wait until he and Zhu Zhuqing are over eighteen years old.

Now is the great time for cultivation, and it is not appropriate to indulge in the personal affairs of your children.

This quasi-letter surprised the Grand Duke of the Netherworld.

A large number of sycophants praised Xia Ling not to say anything, and at the same time did not forget to care about Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing, who is relatively thin-skinned, is a little uncomfortable.

During the banquet, Xia Ling always felt that there was a malicious gaze watching at him.

When he looked, the gaze disappeared again.

This puzzled him.

Could it be that there are still people in this Netherworld family who want to do something to him?

Xia Ling silently turned on the Divine Sense to scan the audience.

In the distant seat, he found a middle-aged man with a resentful look in his eyes but a little relieved.

It is worth mentioning that this middle-aged man looks five or six points similar to Zhu Zhuqing.

A proper old handsome guy.

This can't be Zhuqing's father, right?

Xia Ling hurriedly took a bite of food and suppressed the shock.

In the original book, it seems that except for Zhu Zhuyun, no one else in the Zhu family was mentioned at all.

This made him a little uncertain about his temperament as a prospective old man.

When Zhu Zhuqing lived in the Martial Spirit Academy before, he didn't seem to mention his parents.

It's just that staying in the family is walking on thin ice.

Now, it doesn't seem like that's exactly the case.

This guy who seems to be his quasi-father-in-law definitely has a story in his eyes.
